Question

riangle XYZ is translated 4 units up and 3 units left to yield ΔX'Y'Z'. What is the distance between any two corresponding points on ΔXYZ and ΔX'Y'Z′?

Answer 1

Answer:

5 units

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the given statement  Δ XYZ is translated 4 units up and 3 units left to yield ΔX'Y'Z' which means that each point in ΔXYZ is moved 4 units up and moved 3 units left.

To find the distance of each corresponding point we will use the Pythagorean theorem which states that the square of the length of the Pythagorean of a right triangle is equal to the sum of the squares of the length of other legs

The square of the required distance = 4^2+3^2 = 16+9 =25

By taking root of 25 we get:

√25 = 5

Thus, we can conclude that the the distance between any two corresponding points on ΔXYZ and ΔX′Y′Z′  is 5 units. ..
